james A. Rhodes Arena James A. Rhodes Arena provides the Zips with a homecourt advantage that rivals any facility in the Mid-American Conference. Also known as Rhodes Arena and the JAR, the facility is home to the men’s and women’s basketball teams, as well as the women’s volleyball squad. The men’s basketball team has posted a .868 winning percentage (132-20) since the 2004-05 season under 11th-year head coach Keith Dambrot. The Zips have posted a winning home record in 19-straight seasons. All 5,500 seats in the arena are retractable to facilitate the use of the 18,000-square-foot floor for physical education activities, concerts, conventions and other special events. Armchair seating is available on the lower level (1,323) and on the west-side upper level (773), while the remaining seats are bleacher style. The main scoreboard, also called Zips Vision, features four Opto Tech 7.5’ x 10’ LED displays which showcase replays of the action on the floor plus other programming before, during and after the game. Opto Tech is one of the industry leaders in large-scale video displays, whose sports clients include Major League Baseball’s Arizona Diamondbacks, Ohio State University, the University of Nebraska, and the Georgia Dome, home of the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons.    The arena is comprised of two floors. In addition to the court, the first level features locker rooms, a sports medicine and training facility, a ticket office, a fan team shop and meeting rooms. The ground level is also home to the school’s hall of fame, which features photos and information on each inductee. The second floor offers a jogging track and four special multi-purpose labs – suitable for archery, golf, badminton and dancing. The 2,600-square-foot Tommy Evans Memorial Lounge, used for preand post-game receptions and department functions, is housed on the south end of the second floor. The 125,538-square-foot building also includes an office wing that houses the bulk of The University’s athletics department staff. During the summer of 2011, the JAR saw the addition of team lounges for the men’s and women’s basketball programs, as well as a 1,850-foot weight room. The team lounges feature state-of the-art technology, and video systems, designed specifically to meet the needs of the Akron

basketball programs. The weight room services both basketball programs, as well as the volleyball and women’s tennis squads. Improved locker rooms were added to the Rhodes Arena complex in the fall of 1992. The new team facilities were funded through private contributions to the Z-Fund. Rhodes Arena has played host to the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Wine and Gold intrasquad scrimmage in the past, along with the LeBron James Skills Academy (showcase for the nation’s best high school players) and the LeBron James King’s Academy (youth camp). The King James Shooting Stars Classic (AAU tournament) also called James A. Rhodes Arena home at one point. The men’s basketball program hosts the Zips Basketball School, the Offensive Skills Camp and Basketball Elite Workout camps, in addition to a Team Shootout and Point Guard Academy. Under the direction of coach Dambrot and his staff, the camps exhibit Dambrot’s emphasis on fundamentals, defense and hard work as the major components of being a great basketball player. The facility became the new home of The University of Akron’s athletics teams on Dec. 3, 1983. Opened prior to the 1983-84 season, the facility gave the Zips basketball and volleyball teams a modern indoor athletics complex. Rhodes Arena was the first phase of a three-part $20.5 million project, which included the $6.5 million Oliver J. Ocasek Natatorium, a $2.5 million renovation of Memorial Hall (demolished in 2010) and completion of the 6,000-square-foot Clifford Skeen Varsity Weight Room, which was located inside Memorial Hall. Prior to the 2002-03 season, Rhodes Arena received a $1.1 million renovation. The project included the addition of a new playing surface and several fanbased capital improvements. The first phase of the facelift took place during the summer of 2002 when a new hardwood floor was installed. The cost of the project, which was funded by private donations, was $202,500 and was completed in late August. The new floor replaced a surface that was installed

when the facility was built in 1983. Phase two of the project was one which Zips fans have benefited from most, providing a new state-of-the-art video display and scoreboard system – installed in October 2002. The Cincinnati Floor Company installed the new floor, which was manufactured by Robbins Sports Surfaces. The company is no stranger to the basketball world, having installed the floor at Indiana University’s Assembly Hall and Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena, home of the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers.

In fall 2008, new courtside tables with LED display capabilities were purchased for the venue. In 2013, a new lighting project was completed inside the arena, as well as the lobby, of Rhodes Arena.

men’s basketball team locker room

The space in the lounge is flexible in its usability and supports a variety of functions, including team meetings, individual study time, social interaction and recruiting visits. Graphic elements emphasize the identity of the program and the branding of the University and Zips Athletics. Other amenities include study cubicles with computers and extra tall ceilings and doorways.

men’s basketball coaches’ facilities The men’s basketball coaches’ facility includes offices for head coach Keith Dambrot, his assistant coaches and other staff associated with the program. Visitors and student-athletes alike can catch a glimpse of the Zips’ five MAC Championship trophies, as well as other memorabilia that tells the story of Akron Basketball. Throughout the complex, uniquely designed artwork recap past seasons, milestones and records, and important student-athletes and coaches who helped make the program what it is today.

COACHING STAFF

The men’s basketball team locker room is designed with comfort in mind. From the natural lighting from overhead windows to captain’s chairs at each player’s locker, studentathletes are able to relax before, during halftime and after the game. The men’s locker room is attached directly to the sports medicine complex and includes all-wood lockers and a lounge area with sofas and a flat-screen television.

specifically to meet the needs of the Akron basketball program, is synchronized with equipment located in the existing coaching staffs’ offices to maximize efficiency in video study and game preparation.

The new surface also saw the addition of the school’s new logo and word marks, which were unveiled in July 2002.

The 1,850-square-foot strength-training room gives the Zips a space for strength and conditioning training inside Rhodes Arena, allowing for the squad to better utilize training time without having to relocate to other buildings for weight room access. The facility is located in proximity to the squad’s locker room, team lounges and arena floor. The weight room services both basketball programs, as well as the volleyball squad.

What is a Zip? One of the unique nicknames in all of intercollegiate athletics belongs to The University of Akron. Originally Zippers, athletic director Kenneth “Red” Cochrane officially shortened the nickname to the Zips in 1950. Twentyfive years earlier a campus-wide contest had been conducted to choose a nickname for The University’s athletics teams. Suggestions submitted by students, faculty, and alumni included Golden Blue Devils, Tip Toppers, Rubbernecks, Hillbillies, Kangaroos and Cheveliers. The winner, freshman Margaret Hamlin, received a prize of $10 for Zippers, a $6 pair of rubber overshoes and a brand name of the BF Goodrich Company. The evolution of Zippy, UA’s mascot, began 40 years ago when the student council decided the University needed a mascot. “Zippy” the kangaroo was officially declared the school’s mascot on May 1, 1953. In 2007, Zippy was named the Capital One National Mascot of the Year.

2014-15 MEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE

On Aug. 24, 2011, the athletics departments at The University of Akron and Kent State University today announced participation in a new competition called “The PNC Wagon Wheel Challenge,” which further expands an intercollegiate athletics rivalry dating back more than a halfcentury between the two schools. The PNC Wagon Wheel Challenge is based on a time-honored competition for an historic wooden wagon wheel trophy awarded originally in 1945 to the winner of the annual Akron-Kent State football game. Starting with the 2011-12 academic year, the PNC-sponsored rivalry broaden the competition to include 15 NCAA varsity sports, with victories in each sport adding one point to the challenge standings.

“PNC’s new athletic challenge will spark more excitement in a broad range of sports between these rival schools,” said Kevin O. Thompson, PNC regional president for Akron, Canton and Wooster. “By showcasing the talents of student-athletes, we will further engage alumni and the community to support our schools.” In keeping with tradition, the annual winner of the football contest will gain possession of the historic wooden Wagon Wheel trophy, while the school that accumulates the most total points in all varsity matchups for that academic year will receive an overall series trophy.

According to legend, the “Wagon Wheel” trophy traces its beginnings to the spring of 1870 when Akron industrialist John R. Buchtel set out for the town of Kent in search of a site to establish a college. In the muddy Ohio fields, however, his wagon became bogged down in the area where Kent State University is currently located. When horses pulled the wagon, a wheel came loose and became buried until it was discovered in 1902 during the construction of a pipeline along the Western Reserve Trail.

“College athletics is built on strong rivalries, and we’re fortunate to have one of the closest in the country with Akron,” Kent State director of athletics Joel Nielsen said. “We’re very appreciative of PNC’s support of the Wagon Wheel Challenge – this model has worked very well with other schools and it can only help grow this rivalry and make it even stronger.”

Akron scored points in men’s basketball (0.5), women’s basketball (1.0), men’s cross country (1.0), women’s cross country (1.0), football (1.0), men’s indoor track & field (1.0) and men’s outdoor track & field (1.0).

IMG College, the sponsorship and multi-media rights holder for both Akron and Kent State athletics negotiated the PNC Wagon Wheel Challenge.

“The Akron-Kent State rivalry is a regional event and this partnership will help expand it to more sports and likewise more fans,” Akron director of athletics Tom Wistrcill said. “We’re excited to have PNC serve as sponsor of what is one of the more unique rivalries in college athletics. As members of the Mid-American Conference, the results of our competitions against one another are already very important, but the Wagon Wheel Challenge will increase the level of bragging rights around the community.”

PNC Wagon Wheel Challenge - Rules and Qualifying Sports • Each of the fifteen (15) sports will be worth one (1) point. For a school to be the winner of The PNC Wagon Wheel Challenge, it must accumulate at least eight (8) points. • The point is awarded to the team that wins the season series in the head-to-head competition. • If the teams play head-to-head once in a given season (e.g. football), then the school that wins will receive the point. • All regular season games count toward the season series tally (including if non-conference games are played) with the school that wins more games (e.g., winning two of three in softball) receiving the point. If teams split the regular season matchups (e.g., in basketball), then each team receives a one-half (½) point for that sport. • For men’s and women’s cross country, golf and indoor/outdoor track and field, one point is awarded to whichever school finishes higher in the MAC Championship for each of those sports. (For these sports, no other competitions – in-season or post-season – will count toward the series). • MAC and/or NCAA Tournament games can count toward determining the season series winner (e.g., the schools split the two regular season meetings in basketball and then meet in the MAC Tournament, whichever school wins that game is awarded the point). • In the event of a 15-sports season tie, the school that won the trophy the previous year will retain possession.

Keith Dambrot

HC

Head Coach 11th Season Akron (1982)

Keith Dambrot’s motivation for success is different than most head coaches at the Division I level. His commitment has seen the Akron basketball program grow into one of the top mid-majors in the nation. This drive doesn’t stem from thoughts of career stepping stones, but from his allegiance to his hometown and alma mater. Dambrot became the 21st head coach of Akron men’s basketball on March 10, 2004. On Sept. 23, 2013, he signed a one-year contract extension to be head coach of the Zips through the 2022-23 season. Dambrot wasted no time putting his stamp on the program and has led Akron to the postseason in seven-straight and eight of the last nine seasons – participating in the NCAA Tournament in 2009, 2011 and 2013, the National Invitation Tournament in 2006, 2008 and 2012, the College Basketball Invitational (CBI) in 2010 and the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament in 2014. His success ranks the Zips with some of the top programs in the nation. Akron is one of only eight teams in the country to win at least 21 games in each of the past nine seasons, joining the likes of Duke, Florida, Gonzaga, Kansas, Ohio State, Pittsburgh and Syracuse. UA leads the MidAmerican Conference in overall wins since the start of the 2004-05 season (231) and is tied for 30th nationally in overall wins during that stretch. Dambrot is one of just 10 coaches to own an active streak of nine or more consecutive seasons of 20-plus wins at the same school, and shares the 11th-longest streak of consecutive 20-win seasons with Steve Fisher (San Diego State) and Dave Rose (BYU). Dambrot has led Akron to the MAC Tournament semifinals in ninestraight years, including seven title game appearances in the last eight seasons. In his 10 seasons in charge of the program, Akron has amassed a 231-107 (.683) overall record, including a 119-47 mark in MAC play and a 132-20 tally in home games (71-12 in MAC play). In 16 seasons as a collegiate head coach he owns a 339-177 (.657) overall record. Dambrot enters the 2014-15 season in fourth place in MAC history with a .640 win percentage while coaching in the league (251-141 overall; 231-107 Akron, 20-34 Central Michigan), fourth in overall wins (251), fourth in conference wins (129) and fifth in league games winning percentage (.645, 129-71). In 2013, Dambrot was named the MAC Coach of the Year and the Red Auerbach Coach of the year, as well as a finalist for the Jim Phelan National Coach of the Year award (national COY) and the Hugh Durham Award, which recognizes the nation’s top mid-major coach. Mentoring a total of 29 All-MAC honorees, 13 MAC All-Tournament team selections, four MAC Sixth Man of the Year honors, four MAC Defensive Players of the Year, three MAC tournament MVPs and one MAC player of the year award have highlighted his time at UA. Also during his watch, 11 players have been added to the school’s 1,000-point scorer’s list, he coached the all-time blocked shots leader for Akron and the MAC (Zeke Marshall, 368), Akron’s all-time assists leader (Dru Joyce, 503), alltime winningest player (Chris McKnight, 97 victories) and all-time games played leaders (Steve McNees and Nikola Cvetinovic, 141).

NATIONAL EXPOSURE The University has increased its footprint on the national level under Dambrot. On the heels of the nation’s-best 19-game winning streak during the 2012-13 campaign, the Zips earned the No. 24 ranking in the Feb. 25 USA TODAY Coaches Poll, the first national ranking in program history. UA also received a program-best 43 votes in the AP Poll that week. The Zips have gained the attention of the national pollsters on five separate occasions prior to 2013, including the Nov. 9, 2012, and Nov. 12, 2007, AP Polls, and the 2003-04 preseason, Nov. 18, 2003, 1985-86 final coaches polls. Additionally, UA has closed out six of the last eight campaigns ranked in the final CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Top 25.

2014-15 MEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE

Akron continues to play in a number of nationally televised games and has finished inside the RPI Top-100 in the last three seasons, including a program-best 48th in 2012-13. The program has not been afraid to compete against teams from the ACC, Big East, SEC, Pac-12, Big 12, A-10, MWC, MVC and WAC. In 2013, the Zips will play in its third-consecutive ESPN-hosted tournament, the 2014Gildan Charleston Classic, after playing in the 2012 Puerto Rico Tip-Off and 2013 Hawaiian Airlines Diamond Head Classic.

THE DAMBROT ERA HIGHLIGHTS After guiding the Zips to a 19-10 record in the 2004-05 season, the program finished the 2005-06 campaign with a 23-10 mark, which at the time was the most wins in the program’s Division I era, and also notched the school’s first D-I postseason victory – an 80-73 overtime win at Temple in the opening round of the NIT. UA also posted a 13-0 mark at Rhodes Arena that year, and extended its win streak at home to 18 games, which ranked as the third-longest nationally at the time.

Senior forward Romeo Travis capped off his career by being selected as an Honorable Mention All-American by the Associated Press – the first Zips cager to do so since 1989. Travis was also honored as the MAC Player of the Year, the first in the history of the UA program, and was named to the all-league first team, MAC All-Tournament Team and National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) All-District 10 Second Team for the second-straight season.

Dambrot’s 2008-09 squad went 23-13 and advanced to the NCAA Tournament after winning its first-ever MAC Tournament championship against Buffalo. The Zips earned a No. 13 seed in the NCAA Tournament and fell to Gonzaga in the first round, 77-64, after leading with just over nine minutes to play. Competing in 36 overall games, it was the longest season in program history.

The 2010-11 season saw many ups and downs, but the result was the same as the 2008-09 season. The Zips, 12-10 at one point in the season, won eight-straight games and 12 of their last 15 to win the MAC title for the second time in three seasons and advance to the program’s third NCAA Tournament. With a 23-13 record, Akron faced Notre Dame in the second round of the NCAA Tournament as the No. 15 seed. The Zips fell 69-56 to the Fighting Irish.

Dambrot received his M.B.A from Akron in 1984 while serving as a graduate assistant under former men’s basketball coach Bob Rupert. After two years as a graduate assistant, he moved up to a full-time role with the Zips for one season, before taking the head coaching job at Tiffin. In his second season there (1985-86), he led the Dragons to the most single-season wins in school history (24). In 1986, he made his first venture into the MAC, starting a three-year run as an assistant coach at Eastern Michigan and worked alongside then head coach Ben Braun (who served as head coach at California and is now at Rice). In 1988, the Hurons won their first-ever MAC championship and made their first NCAA Tournament appearance. Dambrot returned to northeast Ohio in 1989 as head coach at Ashland, where, in two years, he led the Eagles to a 48-13 overall mark, two final national rankings and their first-ever conference and regional championships. In 1991, he returned to the MAC and took on his first Division I head coaching role at Central Michigan. His 1992 recruiting class was ranked 15th in the nation by Hoop Scoop Magazine and he led the Chippewas to a 20-34 record in his two seasons. THE DAMBROT COACHING TREE A key part to Keith Dambrot’s success has come from the knowledge and expertise of his coaching staff. Comprised primarily of former players, both from Akron and his previous coaching stops, Dambrot’s current staff is comprised of four former players, including Zips’ assistant coaches Terry Weigand (Tiffin, 1985-86), Rick McFadden (Akron, 200305) and Charles Thomas (Eastern Michigan, 1987-89), as well as director of basketball operations Steve McNees (Akron, 2007-11). Former assistant coaches under Dambrot have also had success after leaving Akron, including the appointments of Lamont Paris (2004-10) and Jeff Boals (2006-09) to positions with Big 10 programs Wisconsin and Ohio State respectively. Shaka Smart, an Akron assistant from 2003-06, made stops at Clemson (2006-08) and Florida (2008-09) before taking his first head coach position at VCU in 2009. Smart went on to lead VCU to the 2011 Final Four. THE AKRON CONNECTION An Akron native, Dambrot spent his formative years roaming the UA campus and attending basketball games in the program’s old gymnasium, Memorial Hall.

RECORD BOOK

During the 2009-10 season, Dambrot’s squad went 24-11 and made its fourth-straight appearance in the MAC Title Game. The Zips made their third-consecutive postseason appearance and fourth in five years, playing in the College Basketball Invitational game for the first time.

CAREER COACHING EXPERIENCE

2013-14 YEAR IN REVIEW

In 2007-08, Dambrot and the Zips provided their fan base with another year filled with excitement and milestones, ending the season with a 2411 record and an 11-5 finish in league play. UA again advanced to the MAC tournament title game. For the second time in three seasons, the Zips made their way to the second round of the NIT – this time knocking off Florida State 65-60 in OT in the opening round. That was the program’s first-ever victory over a school from the Atlantic Coast Conference. The Zips lost 68-63 to eventual NIT runner-up Massachusetts in the second round.

The 2013-14 campaign saw the Zips win 21 games for a ninth-straight season and advance to postseason play for a seventh-consecutive year. Akron finished the season inside top RPI Top-100 for a third-consecutive campaign and advanced to the MAC Tournament semifinals for a ninthstraight year.

COACHING STAFF

In 2006-07, Dambrot led Akron to a school-record tying 26-7 mark (197172 team went 26-5) and its first MAC East Division title since 1998. Additionally, the program made its first-ever appearance in the MAC tournament championship game, falling 53-52 on a 3-point buzzer-beater. The Zips ran their win streak at home to 21 games, with a 73-71 loss to top-25 ranked Nevada blemishing what was the fourth-best streak nationally at the time. UA ended the campaign 13-1 at Rhodes Arena.

In addition to the program’s first national ranking and a program-best finish in the RPI standings during the 2012-13 campaign, Dambrot’s Zips tied the program record with 26 wins (26-7), posted the nation’s longest winning streak (19-straight) and the best start to league play in MAC history (13-0), won its second-straight MAC regular season title, posted a 19-point win over Ohio in the MAC title game and earned a programbest No. 12 seed in the 2013 NCAA Tournament.

STUDENT-ATHLETES

With Dambrot in charge, the program tallied its first-ever victories over schools from the Atlantic Coast Conference (at Florida State in the 2008 NIT) and Southeastern Conference (versus Mississippi State during the 2005-06 regular season at the San Juan Shootout in Puerto Rico), in addition to posting at least one victory over a team in the power-five conferences in each of the last three seasons.

The 2011-12 campaign was a season of firsts as the Zips won their first MAC regular season title and became the first league team to play in sixstraight conference tournament title games. Akron advanced to its third NIT under Dambrot after falling in the MAC Title Game by a single point. Dambrot also became the first Akron coach to be named to the NABC all-district list, earning co-district coach of the year honors.

STUDENT-ATHLETES

AKRON BASKETBALL

AKRON ZIPS head coach keith dambrot This is also the community that educated him. Four years at nearby Firestone High School provided the foundation for a bachelor’s and master’s degree from the University. Dambrot’s late mother, Faye, was a trend-setting professor at the University, teaching in the psychology department from 1966-89, and being instrumental in forming the women’s studies program. Calling her a heralded member of the faculty and community is an understatement. In recent years, Dambrot became known as the man responsible for bringing the modest Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary High School boy’s basketball team into the national spotlight. As head coach of the Fighting Irish, his teams won a pair of state championships in 2000 and 2001. A key component to those squads was three-time NBA MVP LeBron James (his freshman and sophomore seasons). Dambrot helped develop James. At the age of 13, the future NBA MVP and All-Star participated in $1 clinics Dambrot conducted at the local Jewish Community Center. James is another example of someone who takes his connection to the Akron community to heart, and is a regular at games in UA’s Rhodes Arena and off-season team workouts.

The University’s decision makers seem keyed into Dambrot’s unique situation, one that seems to provide good perspective of this geographic region along with a sound formula for success. “We have high expectations for every aspect of our institution, including intercollegiate athletics,” former University President Dr. Luis M. Proenza said. “Much like the University, Keith Dambrot has a long history with and extensive connections in northeast Ohio.”

2013-14 YEAR IN REVIEW

Dambrot began his assistant coaching tenure at UA in June 2001 following three seasons at Akron’s St. Vincent-St. Mary High. In that time he led the school to a 69-10 record, including a 27-0 mark in 1999-2000. In his final two seasons at the school, the Irish were state champions and garnered national rankings by USA Today. PERSONAL

RECORD BOOK

COACHING STAFF

It’s building off of experiences like that motivates this head coach, who has worked as hard as any in the nation since assuming his post.

2014-15 MEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE

No. 22 – mike harkins

No. 42 – Bill Turner

Larry Jenkins, a four-time letterwinner and captain of the 1973-74 squad, was named an All-American for his play in the 1970-71 season as a freshman. During his career at Akron, the Zips went a combined 86-22 while making three-straight appearances in the NCAA College Division tournament, including a national runner-up finish in 1972 – falling to Roanoke in the championship game. In 1973-74, Jenkins led the team in scoring (15.9) and assists (5.0). His 119 assists ranks third all-time by a junior and ninth for a single-season. Jenkins also ranks 29th all-time with 1,086 points in a career and 12th with 234 assists.

A charter member of UA’s Athletics Hall of Fame, Mike Harkins finished his four-year career as Akron’s all-time scorer, surpassing Jim Fenton. Harkins scored 1,425 points during a split career that began in 1951 and finished in 1956. He was the Zips’ leading scorer during the 1954 to 1956 seasons and became the sixth UA cager to score 500 or more points in a single season by totaling 521 points during the 195455 campaign. An All-Ohio and all-conference performer, Harkins’ career high of 46 points against Heidelberg stood as the school record for 28 years and his career average of 21.9 points per game is second among UA’s all-time scorers.

Bill Turner is UA’s first and only athlete to play in the NBA. During his four seasons on the hilltop, the Zips compiled an 87-19 record and participated in three NCAA postseason tournaments. A three-time team MVP, Turner scored 1,630 points from 1962-67 to become UA’s alltime scorer, and hauled down 1,171 rebounds (fourth-best on the UA career chart). Turner helped the 1965 and 1966 teams capture the Ohio Conference Championship and NCAA Mideast Regional titles as the leading scorer and rebounder. In 1966-67 he was named to the AP College Division All-American First Team. The San Francisco Warriors selected Turner in the third round of the 1967 NBA Draft. He played in the league for six years with the Warriors, Cincinnati Royals, Portland Trailblazers and the Los Angeles Lakers.

No. 13 – fritz nagy

Jim “Red” Fenton finished his career in 1954 with 1,319 points and a 19.9 scoring average, to become UA’s all-time leading scorer. He scored in double figures in 64 of his 66 career games and is one of only six UA cagers to have scored 500 or more points in a single season. Fenton led the Zips in scoring each of his three seasons, including 527 points in 1952-53. During the 1951-52 campaign, Fenton was the leading free-throw shooter in the nation, connecting on 104-of-121 attempts for a .859 percentage. Fenton, who was the team MVP and a Little All-American in 1952 and 1953, was a threetime All-Ohio selection.

No. 31 – Joe Jakubick

No. 55 – Alex Adams

Joe Jakubick finished his career (1980-84) as the most prolific scorer in UA basketball history. A threetime captain and MVP, he established 25 school records and three Ohio Valley Conference marks in his four-year career. Most prominent was his 2,583 total points, tops at both UA and in the OVC. In his senior campaign, Jakubick led the NCAA Division I in scoring by averaging 30.1 points per game, a feat that no other UA player has matched. In that 1983-84 campaign, he was named OVC Player of the Year, an honor he shared as a junior, and an Honorable Mention All-America for a third straight year.

Alex Adams (1959-61), was one of the first African American student-athletes to have been recruiting by Akron. Adams was a Basketball All-American (United Press-Little AllAmerica Team) during the 1960-61 season as a senior and ranks among the top 10 in program history in points (1,442 – currently ranks No. 9) and rebounds (872 – currently ranks No. 7). His 1,442 points made him UA’s then all-time leading scorer. In 1975, Adams was named head coach for the Zips, leading the program to a 10-14 record during the 1975-76 season.

No. 44 – Jim fenton

RECORD BOOK

Len Paul was the first UA basketball player to score more than 2,000 points (2,028) and pull down more than 1,000 rebounds (1,021) in a career. Between 1969 and 1973, the southpaw talent set 13 school records, tied another and earned the team’s MVP award all four seasons. Paul led the Zips into NCAA Tournament action in each of his last three seasons, including a national runner-up finish to Roanoke College in 1971-72. He was the first UA player to score more than 500 points in two separate seasons - 518 points in 1970-71, and 564 in 1971-72. Paul’s talents were also recognized across the nation. He earned All-Mideast Regional honors three consecutive years, and in 1971-72 was named a First-Team Associated Press All-America.

Eric McLaughlin was an AllAmerican during the 198889 season when the Zips made a trip to the National Invitation Tournament. During his four seasons at Akron, the four-year letterwinner and two-time team captain guided the Zips to a combined record of 85-32, two NIT appearances, an Ohio Valley Conference championship and an NCAA Tournament appearance. McLaughlin’s 198889 single-season assists total (156) is second-best all-time, including 11 assists against Youngstown State (Jan. 21, 1989), which still stands as the most dishes in a game at Rhodes Arena and the third-best single-game total in program history. He also ranks third all-time with 1,810 points and 177 career steals. His 631 points in 1988-89 stands as the fourth-best single-season total.

COACHING STAFF

A 1949 UA graduate who ranks as one of the all-time greats in school history, Fritz Nagy was a charter member of the university’s Athletics Hall of Fame. An uncanny natural scorer, Nagy’s 1,258 points in only three years of competition was UA’s all-time high until Jim Fenton surpassed it in 1954. Nagy’s single-season scoring total of 547 points in the 1944-45 season stood as a UA record for 26 years. An All-Ohio selection three times during his career, Nagy was voted UA’s first Little All-American in 1945, an honor he repeated in 1947. Nagy signed a contract with the Chicago American Gears in October of 1947, where he enjoyed three years at the professional level.
